BUTTE, October 29.-The friends Of
Capt. Reynolds to-day made new play
in the colonelcy affair. Action was com
menced in the name of & Shepherd, Thos.
Cropp, John B. Knight and Richard Thei-
man against Gov. Leslie, Gen. Warren
and the company officers of the Montana
National guards, to enioin them from
holding an election for colonelcy of the 1st
regiment on the ground that the COVER
nors order is contrary to the constitution
an law, in that it permits only commits
stoned officers to vote at such an election,
barring non commissioned officers and
privates. Judge Galbraith issued an Or
der for defendants to appear at 2 p. m. to
show cause why the injunction should not
be granted. Col. Napton appeared for the
governor and Gen. Warren, while c. J.
Walsh appeared for the plaintiffs The
matter was argued at some length when
the judge took it under advisement Il
will be decided on Monday. Notwith
standing this, at o'clock the election Of
colonel took place before Gen. Warren.
Seven companies were represented, enti-
tied to q votes. The only candidates we're
Capt. Reynolds and Capt. Lloyd. The lat
ter was elected by Is to 6. There is no
doubt of Lloyd being commissioned. He
is trained soldier, an educated gentle
man and is the choice Of the governor and
Gen. Turner for the position. Col. Lloyd
was called east Immediately after the
election by telegram announcing the
dangerous illness of his wife.

Geo. III. Thobe VS.. John G. Carlisle.

WASHINGTON, October 29.-The brief of
George Fl. Thobe vs.. John G. Carlisle was
filed with the clerk Of the house Of repre-
sentatives today. The brief asserts that
Thobe was elected by 600 majority. This
result is found by rejecting about 1000
votes cast for Carlisle and about 200 votes
cast for Thobe, which were polled at pre-
cincts where it is claimed the laws of Ken
lucky were not observed. The brief cites
congressional precedents from 1791 to
prove that congress maintained this view
of the law of elections. 1t also quotes
the admissions made by Carlisle in his
answer to contestants brief, which are
held to be fatal to his title to his seat.
